What Our Asbestos Inspections Include

Pre-renovation or Pre-demolition Asbestos Inspection:

Required before any renovation or demolition to ensure that ACMs are identified and safely handled.

Management Asbestos Survey:

Regular inspections of buildings with known ACMs to monitor their condition and ensure they are properly managed.

Specialty Demolition

Clearance Inspection:

Conducted after asbestos removal work to ensure that the area is safe and no asbestos residue is left behind.

Residential Demolition

Pre-purchase Asbestos Inspection:

Conducted before buying a property to determine if ACMs are present, which could affect the property value and safety.

Asbestos Testing or Sampling:

Involves taking small samples from suspected ACMs for laboratory analysis to confirm their presence.

Process of Asbestos Inspection in Canberra:

1
Initial Assessment:
The inspection begins with a visual assessment of the property, identifying potential areas where asbestos may be present, such as roofing, flooring, insulation, or walls.
2
Sample Collection:
If ACMs are suspected, the inspector collects samples from different parts of the building. This may include scraping small amounts from materials such as wall linings, tiles, or pipes.
3
Laboratory Testing:
The collected samples are sent to a NATA-accredited laboratory for analysis. The test determines if the material contains asbestos and its type (e.g., chrysotile, amosite, or crocidolite).
4
Detailed Report:
The inspector provides a comprehensive report detailing the location, condition, and extent of any asbestos found. The report also includes recommendations for management or removal if necessary.
5
Risk Assessment:
Based on the findings, the inspector will assess the risk posed by the asbestos. This includes whether it is friable (easily crumbled) or non-friable, which affects its potential to release dangerous fibers into the air.
6
Recommendations:
Depending on the level of risk, the inspector will recommend actions such as asbestos management, encapsulation, or removal by licensed professionals.
7
Clearance Inspection (if removal is done):
If asbestos is removed, a clearance inspection ensures that the removal was effective and the area is now safe for occupancy or renovation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral once widely used in construction materials due to its durability and heat resistance. An asbestos inspection is crucial to identify and manage any asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in your property. Exposure to asbestos fibers can cause serious health risks, including lung diseases and cancer.

You should get an asbestos inspection if:

  • You are buying or selling an older property.
  • You plan to renovate or demolish a building that may contain asbestos.
  • Your property was built before 2003 (when asbestos was banned in Australia).
  • You want to ensure the safety of your workplace or home, especially if ACMs are suspected.

During an asbestos inspection, a licensed inspector will visually assess the property and collect samples from suspected materials. These samples are sent to a lab for testing to determine whether they contain asbestos. The inspector will then provide a detailed report with findings and recommendations.

 

The duration of an asbestos inspection depends on the size and complexity of the property. A typical residential inspection may take a few hours, while larger commercial buildings could take longer. Laboratory testing results usually take 2-5 days.

 

If asbestos is detected, the report will recommend either managing the asbestos in place (if it’s in good condition) or removing it if it poses a risk. You should contact a licensed asbestos removal company to handle any necessary removal or management work.

 

Asbestos inspections are mandatory before any major renovation or demolition of buildings constructed before the asbestos ban in 2003. It is also highly recommended during property transactions and for ongoing safety in workplaces.

You can book an asbestos inspection by contacting a licensed asbestos inspection company, like Crown Asbestos Removal, or another qualified service provider in your area. They will provide a quote and arrange a time for the inspection.
